There was complete silence when Kamilla entered the laboratory. Jean gaped, her jaw dropping low as she watched Kamilla walk towards her workstation. Michael and Kyriz have the same predicament before they exchanged meaningful glances. All three of them were aware that Kamilla had someone special. But they are not expecting they are this wild. For the first time since working at Petrov Pharmaceuticals, Kamilla arrived late today. She woke up late and sore. The discomfort between her legs prevents her from moving without grimacing. Not to mention all of the love marks on her neck and all over her body. Samuel tried to convince her to rest for the day, but she refused. She cannot leave her task unfinished, so after breakfast and a good warm bath, she got ready for office. She arrived late, but that was preferable to being absent. Jean shook her head and closed her eyes, hoping to clear her mind and her vision. But when she looks at Kamilla again, she sees the same thing she
Before the day is over, stories of Kamilla Laskin's affair with a wealthy old man had spread across the company, thanks to Director Lee. At mid-afternoon, while Kamilla and her team were taking their customary coffee break, the laboratory common room was unusually crowded, not only with laboratory staff but also with employees from other departments. Today, the other departments have inexplicably ran out of supplies. Some came for creamer and sugar, some for a refill of their drinking water, and some are simply daring enough to linger in the pantry doing nothing. There is only one reason for the uproar. To catch a peek of Kamilla Laskin, who boldly wears her love marks throughout the workplace. "Sometimes people here are plain petty," Michael says, shaking his head and ignoring the hushed ruckus around him. "They are not even trying to be discreet," Kyriz exclaimed, casting a quick glance around. Jean simply sighed and shook her head, displeased with their coworkers. "Well, ano
"What are you looking at? You are checking out your admirers?" Kamilla got irritated when she noticed Samuel looking out the window."Director Lee and Miss Thomas are still standing," he drew her close to him and playfully scowled at her."What do you expect them to do?" she asked in a harsh tone."Well, I thought..." Samuel shrugged and paused. "I don't want to disappoint Doctor Lia" she pursed her lips as she got comfortable on his lap. Samuel stared at her for a moment, trying to figure out what she meant. "Doctor Lia is helping me manage my impulsiveness" she added, resting on his chest. If Director Lee and Ryza Thomas could see through the windshield of the black tinted vehicle, they would almost certainly collapse to the ground, not from her poison, but from envy. "Well, that is great" Samuel mumbled while buried in her sweet smelling hair. Whenever she is with Samuel, she instinctively lowers all of her guards. She just realized how depleted she was. Exhausted and sleepy.
"Director Lee create a scene again?" Kyriz asked when he arrived. "That woman is getting desperate" Jean spoke while preparing her workstation."Good thing, you do not allow her to bully you, Ella. She is already getting into my nerves" Michael muttered seriously."Let her be. I can handle her" Kamilla turn to her colleagues. "Just be careful. Those three could be cunning. They were used to getting what they wanted. No one had dared to get in the way with their charade to earn Sir Samuel and the other Petrov men's attention. Those three are working their way to be with any Petrov heirs" Kyriz turn to face her and seriously warned her. "Don't worry, Ky, I will. Whatever scheme they devise will not succeed. The Petrov men are not dumb" Kamilla chuckled. She cannot believe those women are that desperate. As Samuel had previously said, people believe whatever the Petrovs want them to think. They won't waste time trying to amend anything. "By the way, this weekend will be the company
"This is awesome" Jean whispered, staring at the magnificent ceiling of their hotel room."Tired?" Kamilla inquired amusingly as she leaned against the closed door.Jean had been happily rampaging around their room since they first entered it.Her fervent plea was answered, and she now shares a room with Kamilla. To add to her luck, they will not share with anybody else."I cannot believe such luxury could be possible for me. I feel like living the life of a Petrov heiress. You are my lucky charm, Ella. We have a suite room exclusively for the two of us. Not an ordinary room, but a suite room," she exclaims, turning to her side to face her."Perhaps they ran out of standard rooms. The entire hotel is packed with all their employees" Kamilla shrugged, walking to her bed.They did indeed get a suite room. There are two double beds, a luxury bathroom, a dining space, and a reception area. The fridge is stocked with drinks and delectable sweets that made Jean's mouth, waters. The coffee
"Are you sure you are okay, Ella?" for the nth time, Jean asked worriedly."Yes, I'm fine Jean" she assured her with a smile."I have taken a nap already, I will be fine" though she still felt bleak, the nap and a warm bath she took earlier helped to clear her mind. Despite her colleagues worries earlier, she had convinced them that she was merely tired and hungry. So, after a light snack, they requested that she rest. She actually drifted and was only woken up by Jean when it was time for them to prepare. Jean looked at her for a second before a smile spread across her lips. "Well, let us check you," she said, prompting Kamilla to turn to her. Her smile widened when she saw the results of their DIY. "You looked refreshingly gorgeous. This coat dress suits you perfectly. You will be the contrast from all the female guests later but you will undoubtedly stand out" Jean blurted out in awe. Contrary to the expected revealing gowns the attendees would wear at the party, Kamilla opt t
Following the announcement of the Petrov family's arrival, silence fell upon the entire place. Director Lucille Randle gave Kamilla one last disdained look before looking away to join her family who had already taken their spot to welcome the Petrov entourage. "That was scary. Why didn't you looked away, Ella?" Jean whispered after the tensed duel ended. "That would be an insult if I looked away. She seemed to have given so much effort with her appearance" Kamilla playfully smirked."You are crazy, Ella. She looked rather pissed" Jean rolled her eyes. "Oh, is she? I haven't noticed" Kamilla casually shrugged, unbothered. The three exchanged anxious glances before directing their eyes to Kamilla."Do we have to keep our seats? Director Randle would undoubtedly mind." Contrary to their earlier pleasant demeanor, they all appeared uneasy at the moment. "We have nowhere to go unless we are ready to retire to our rooms," Kamilla stated matter-of-fact. "What will we do if she demands
Kamilla's calm gaze is fixed on Director Randle's hand, which is poised to grasp Samuel's arm.She could feel a strange heat coursing through her veins, searing her sanity, ever since Lucille Randle approached him. Her heart is pumping so fast, it is deafening. She could almost hear blood rushing through her veins. The familiar force is tempting her to cross the distance between them. But, with what little self-control she had, she tightly balled her hands and dug her heels into the floor. No one noticed her struggle as everyone's attention was drawn to the figures in front. Her jaw tightened as she regarded the spectacle with an unsettling gaze. She was so caught up in her thoughts when she saw Samuel stepped away, evading Lucille Randle's hand. However, no one noticed his stealthy movement, including Director Lucille Randle, when a deafening crash of shattered glass startled the guests. *clink**crack**smash*"Aaah!" The entire venue rang with startled wails and horrified ga
"Ready to go home?" Samuel asked, his lips nestled against Kamilla's temple."After six months, we can finally bring home our little fighters. So, yes, I am so ready to go home, Baby," she tearfully smiled, cradling their princess while Samuel carried their two boys.The triplets slumber peacefully in their arms, unconcerned by the bustle around them. She glanced at their three bundles of joy and could not help but smile, teary but joyful. "They appeared to have grown bigger. They looked a lot better without the tubes and medical equipment attached to them," she whispered, wiping away her tears."Yes, my love. They are ready for the world" Samuel helped her dry her cheeks.They were finally able to go home after six months in the facility. The triplets' health is already stable and have passed all of their tests, so the team approved their release. However, due to their prematurity, there are still stringent limitations. An inhouse medical team will assist them in taking care of th
"Babe..." Samuel's voice was muffled as he snuggled against Kamilla's neck. "I will only hold," she insists, her hand already sliding into his boxer.It had been a couple of weeks since her cesarian operation, and she could move freely without concern for her incision."Temptress...Urgh..." he bit her neck, making her giggle. "It's hard" she beamed with joy."It's early morning, Babe, of course it's hard." Though tortured, he chuckled at his wife's antics.Every morning, she would slip her hand inside his boxers and play with his morning wood. Her antics caused him to jerk since he cannot make love with her until she is fully healed. "Bigger than the hungarian sausage," she said with a naughty smile. "You are so huge, Baby. I can't believe this fits me" she mumbled softly, her hand is starting to stroke him to a rhythm he is so familiar with. Also the tightness and warmth akin to her hand wrapped around his shaft, which he sorely missed. "Arghh..." he responded with a deep grow
"But...? What is the but, Lia?" Samuel repeated, and tears began to obscure his vision.He has been trained to see all sides of situations and he consistently demands it regardless of its outcome. Their family waited in trepidation, afraid to even move. Every passing second is torture to everyone's sanity.Lia wiped her tears away and took a quick breath to alleviate the uncomfortable lump in her throat. "Dr. Rene Rechner modified the patented medicine used to wake up Grandmother Andrea." Lia earnestly explained, her eyes fixed at Samuel.At the mention of the drug developed by Dr. Rechner piqued everyone's interest, most particularly Samuel."Two of the triplets shared the same placenta and the other one has her own" Lia gently smiled."My princess got separated from her brothers" Samuel softly mumbled."Yes, and we almost lost her" Lia bitterly whispered, letting out a deep breath. "It was a nightmare. Reviving a fetus smaller than my knuckles was a scene I would rather forget. T
"It is taking so long," Samuel heaved a sigh and muttered, burying his face in his palm.The grueling wait is wreaking havoc on his sanity. It has been four hours and there is no indication of anyone leaving the operation room. "They have to make sure Kamilla and the babies are all right, Sam," Lexie said, rubbing his back to reassure him. Dinara is on the other side of him, doing the same to her son. "We shall keep praying for all of them, Sam. May all of the medical team be shone with divine wisdom that only the heavens could bestow. May Kamilla and the three babies be given the strength to endure" Lexie tenderly whispered with closed eyes. Before Lia, Dr. Rechner, and Abby took Kamilla to the surgery room, the entire family had arrived, including the Wrights and the Steels.Vasili and the other Petrov men arrived three hours later. But they made sure to check in with the others on the ongoing procedure since it started. "They are not done yet?" Vasili asked his brothers the ins
Kamilla had extensive monitoring to ensure she was ready for a cesarean section. Her blood pressure, however, has proven to be the most difficult obstacle. "Sam, go lay down next to Kamilla and sleep. Something is upsetting her, causing her blood pressure to fluctuate. I believe you are the one causing her distress," Lia mumbled sympathetically as she approached Samuel."What exactly do you mean, me?" Samuel was perplexed as he pointed to himself."Kamilla is exhibiting symptoms of stress. She may be lethargic but she is conscious, Sam. She knows exactly what is going on around her" Lia patiently explained, staring straight into his eyes."She knows when you are not eating or sleeping. She could sense your distress and guilt. She knows when you are drowning in work and not taking care of yourself the way you used to." Lia bitterly smiled, seeing his perplexity."She is aware of everything, yet she has no control over it. She cannot take care of you while fighting to survive and beari
"How are you, Babe?" Samuel approached the bed and leaned in to kiss the peacefully sleeping figure on it.He carefully took a seat next to her and hovered above her, his elbows propped up to support his weight. He longingly stares at her beautiful face, seemingly memorizing every detail of it. He received no warm response, as he usually does, but he continued to gently kiss her pale face."I finished some important meetings earlier and started handing over some of my tasks to Denver," he smiled as he planted a kiss on her slightly parted lips. "Starting tomorrow, I will be working from home. I will not leave unless absolutely essential, Babe. We will be together all day," he inhaled deeply with closed eyes, immersing his fatigued senses with her soothing natural scent.He just finished showering alone. It was extremely lonely going about their daily routine without her, but he will persevere. He will wait for her.Yesterday was a mix of joy and doom for him. He found Kamilla had b
"Good day, Madame Kamilla," staff greeted as she make way to the private elevator with her security. "Good day," she remarked with a courteous smile and a kind nod to everyone. Her presence inside Petrov Petroleum's main office has become more frequent in recent days. It had been four months since her wedding, and she was now undergoing rigorous training under all Petrov senior scientists, as Doctor Lia had planned for her. They are preparing her as future chief scientist at the facility. She was doing well in her training, except for her odd yearning to see and smell Samuel every now and then. She was trying to concentrate on her work, but she couldn't resist the impulse to meet with Samuel. So despite the hassle of traveling to the main office from her location, she would make the effort to visit him. However, unlike most days, she felt a little lethargic. She woke up fine earlier. However, when she arrived at the facility, she felt an unusual tightness in her gut. She tried
"What are your plans, Kamilla?" Vasili asked as he stared at the stacks of stones in front of them."I just want to bring my family home" Kamilla smiled bitterly. Today, after ten years, she went back to Monte Cristo a week after the wedding. They arrived at dawn at the mainland's airport and traveled for four hours to Monte Cristo. The sun had already risen and they could clearly see the forest and wreckage of her previous home. Not only Samuel accompanied her but the Mafia Boss, Vasili and his queen, Doctor Amelia, Denver, Carl, Dalton, the Stepanov siblings who are nowhere to be seen around them, and several of their men. Monte Cristo is already a foreign land to her and the Petrov will not allow her and Samuel to return without the Wolf, some of their cousins and their men. Her heart sank to the depths of the ocean as she stared at the makeshift tomb she had built for her family ten years ago. The stones she placed have now become rubble on the ground. The passage of time ru
"Wow, its huge. Thick and long" Kamilla's eyes widened in awe as she stared at the sandwich placed in front of her. A surprisingly large hungarian sausage.Inquisitive eyes darted to her, and as soon as they noticed where her gaze was directed, their brows arched in mischievous delight. "Looked familiar," Abby giggled, her face flushed. "Add a little inch and a bit of thinkness, it is what it is. What do you think?" Lia inquired thoughtfully, her gaze likewise directed at Kamilla's plate."Yeah, I think so too" Kiera nodded while fixing her eyes at the same spot of everyone's interest."That is a lot to consume and its massive. I cannot imagine how it will fit in your mouth" Arah exclaimed, astounded at the generous portion.Kamilla turned to Arah with her Bambi eyes. The rest followed and something just dawned on the four of them. Arah did not seem to figure out what they were talking about. "Yeah, its huge and long, but do it inch by inch, Dr. Arah. I can barely take half of it;
